Craig Ferguson

I'm a fan but haven't watched the Late Late show for a while until tonight. Russell Brand was on and they both seemed drunk, tweaking or both. I thought Ferguson was in recovery?

They're *both* supposed to be in recovery. Ferguson's talked about it on the show and Brand has in interviews.

I want to like Ferguson more than I do. I think perhaps his show might be funnier if he were conversing with non-American (excluding US comedian) celebrities, i.e. the types that enliven Graham Norton's show. US celebrities tend be too uptight and "on message".

And his self-deprecating stuff about his show/studio/success grates.

I caught a shot of him waiting to go on one of the morning shows, and it surprised him and he looked miserable. He seems to be getting more hateful in his interviews.

And why the half-hour of monologue every show, all sexual innuendo and cutesy poses? No one can be that interesting.

I saw him interview Dennis Quaid a while back and he was disrespectful and mocking him in a gay-baiting way. Was it because he played gay in "Far From Heaven"?

Not a good sign.

He lost me with the stupid robot skeleton. He now spends the first 30 minutes of his show basically killing time with that silly prop, and I no longer have the patience to sit through it waiting for the first guest (I still think he does very good interviews).

Too bad he doesn't care enough to give us a real 60 minute show.

His whole schtick is that of a Scottish drunk; he's parodying a drunk hosting a talk show parodying infotainment of the day.

Unfortunately, this 'funny' caters to CBS and David Letterman. That's probably the demographic audience they're shooting for anyway.

Youre right r2 The best interviews he's done have been with non-US guests. The ones with Ewan McGregor and Gerard Butler were great.

Oh, and Craig? Why haven't you had John Barrymore and David Tennant on?

R8, you should send that question to him by email or a tweet. He might read it on the show.

I've seen Ferguson look very drunk on his show before. One time he slaped at the camera and broke it. My brother is also "in recovery" I know a drunk when I see one. I used to like his show but that horse and skeleton thing ruined it. It looks like the old Benny Hill Show now and I hated that too.

I don't believe John Barrymore will be making appearances anytime soon.
